Hyderabad officials are working on the Strategic Nala Development Programme (SNDP) to prevent flooding during the upcoming monsoon season. The SNDP works in Tolichowki are expected to finish before the onset of monsoon. The works include constructing a box type drain in Bal Reddy Nagar, Virasat Nagar and extending nalas with box drain work in areas such as Nadeem Colony, Tolichowki and Hakeempet.
